I'm a long-time Homesteader. At 23, I built my own house with Hammer and Saw, a Library Book, and the strong back of my Father. Thank you, Dad.

I exercise with a push-mower and cut my own firewood in nearby woodlands.
One of the best things I ever did was set up Rain Barrels.

I started with one at my Greenhouse Roof (search Mother Earth News). Now I have 13 to water my Garden, Berry Patches, and Orchard with Drippers. Siphons are the Secret of Success. See how to do it here - - - >
